Crystallographic and molecular modeling studies on 3-ethyl-3-(4-pyridyl)piperidine-2,6-dione and its butyl analogue, inhibitors of mammalian aromatase. Comparison with natural substrates: prediction of enantioselectivity for N-alkyl derivatives.

Inhibitors of the cytochrome P450 enzyme aromatase, which is involved in the biosynthesis of estrogens from androgens, are of proven utility in the treatment of hormone-dependent breast cancer. The determination of the crystal structure of one such inhibitor, 3-ethyl-3-(4-pyridyl)piperidine-2,6-dione (2) and its 3-butyl analogue (3) is described. In the absence of three-dimensional structural information for the enzyme, conformational analysis and comparison with natural substrates has been performed in order to define possible "active" conformations. The enhanced inhibitory activity of 3 may be linked to hydrophobic interactions between the side chain and that portion of the enzyme that normally interacts with the B and C rings of a steroid substrate. Information gained from this study and previous studies by other workers has been combined in order to produce a hypothesis to explain the pattern of activity of N(1)-alkyl derivatives of 2. The successful application of this hypothesis to the prediction of the relative aromatase inhibitory activities of the two enantiomers of the N-octyl derivative (4) is described.

Piperidine analogues of 1-[2-[bis(4-fluorophenyl)methoxy]ethyl]-4-(3-phenylpropyl)piperazine (GBR 12909): high affinity ligands for the dopamine transporter.

A series of 4-[2-[bis(4-fluorophenyl)methoxy]ethylpiperidines were examined for their ability to bind to the dopamine transporter (DAT), the norepinephrine transporter, and the serotonin transporter (SERT). In particular, the role of the N-substituent on affinity and selectivity for the DAT was probed. 4-[2-[Bis(4-fluorophenyl)methoxy]ethyl-1-(2-naphthylmethyl)piperidine was found to possess subnanomolar affinity (K(i) = 0.7 nM) and good selectivity for the DAT (SERT/DAT = 323).

Novel hexahydrospiro[piperidine-4,1'-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrroles]: highly selective small-molecule nociceptin/orphanin FQ receptor agonists.

Novel hexahydrospiro[piperidine-4,1'-pyrrolo[3,4-c]pyrroles that act as potent and selective orphanin FQ/nociceptin (N/OFQ) receptor (NOP) agonists were identified. The best compound, (+)-5a, potently inhibited 3H-N/OFQ binding to the NOP receptor (K(i) = 0.49 nM) but was >1000-fold less potent in binding to MOP, KOP, and DOP opiate receptors. Further, (+)-5a potently stimulated GTP gamma S binding to NOP membranes (EC50 = 65 nM) and inhibited forskolin-mediated cAMP accumulation in NOP-expressing cells (EC50 = 9.1 nM) with a potency comparable to that of the natural peptide agonist N/OFQ. These results indicate that (+)-5a is a highly selective and potent small-molecule full agonist of the NOP receptor.

3-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran derivatives as 5-HT1A receptor ligands and potential anxiolytic agents. 2. Synthesis and quantitative structure-activity relationship studies of spiro[pyrrolidine- and piperidine-2,3'(2'H)-benzopyrans].

In continuation of our work on 3-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran derivatives with high affinity for 5-HT1A receptors, we have prepared rigid spirobenzopyran analogues designed from the pharmacophore models of Mellin and selected via a quantitative structure-activity relationship approach mainly based on similarity indices. A series of spiro[pyrrolidine- and piperidine-2,3'(2'H)-benzopyrans] with various substitutions on the aromatic ring as well as on the extracyclic spiranic nitrogen atom were then synthesized and evaluated for their serotonergic and dopaminergic activities. Good correlation between the predicted and the experimental binding values was observed with an average difference of 0.2 unit on log(IC50). Affinities for the 5-HT1A receptors were in the nanomolar range for the best compounds ((+)-11a,23) with a high selectivity versus other 5-HT (5-HT1B, 5-HT2, 5-HT3) or dopamine (D1, D2) receptor subtypes. As for the 3-amino-3,4-dihydro-2H-1-benzopyran series, the dextrorotatory enantiomer (+)-11a showed better affinity and selectivity for 5-HT1A receptors than its levorotatory analogue (-)-11a. Compound (+)-11a proved in vitro to be a full agonist and in vivo to be active in various comportmental tests predictive of psychotropic activity, such as the forced swim test and the tail suspension test, and is currently under complementary investigations.

1-[1-2-Benzo[b]thiopheneyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine hydrochloride (BTCP) yields two active primary metabolites in vitro: synthesis, identification from rat liver microsome extracts, and affinity for the neuronal dopamine transporter.

1-[1-(2-Benzo[b]thiopheneyl)cyclohexyl]piperidine hydrochloride (BTCP, 1) and cocaine bind to the neuronal dopamine transporter to inhibit dopamine (DA) reuptake. However, on chronic administration, cocaine produces sensitization, but 1 produces tolerance. Because metabolites of 1 might be responsible for some of its pharmacological properties, we have identified the primary metabolites of 1 produced by rat liver microsomes and determined their affinities for the DA transporter. Five monohydroxylated derivatives (3, 5, 9, 10, 14) and two degradation compounds (15, 16) were identified as metabolites through comparison with synthetic standards in HPLC and GC systems. Standards were obtained utilizing synthetic schemes previously used for the synthesis of phencyclidine metabolites. In vitro, two compounds (3, 5) showed a high affinity for the DA transporter. These active metabolites might be important in the pharmacology of 1.

The selective 5-HT1B receptor inverse agonist 1'-methyl-5-[[2'-methyl-4'-(5-methyl-1,2, 4-oxadiazol-3-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]carbonyl]-2,3,6,7-tetrahydro- spiro[furo[2,3-f]indole-3,4'-piperidine] (SB-224289) potently blocks terminal 5-HT autoreceptor function both in vitro and in vivo.

5-HT1 receptors are members of the G-protein-coupled receptor superfamily and are negatively linked to adenylyl cyclase activity. The human 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D receptors (previously known as 5-HT1Dbeta and 5-HT1Dalpha, respectively), although encoded by two distinct genes, are structurally very similar. Pharmacologically, these two receptors have been differentiated using nonselective chemical tools such as ketanserin and ritanserin, but the absence of truly selective agents has meant that the precise function of the 5-HT1B and 5-HT1D receptors has not been defined. In this paper we describe how, using computational chemistry models as a guide, the nonselective 5-HT1B/5-HT1D receptor antagonist 4 was structurally modified to produce the selective 5-HT1B receptor inverse agonist 5, 1'-methyl-5-[[2'-methyl-4'-(5-methyl-1,2, 4-oxadiazol-3-yl)biphenyl-4-yl]carbonyl]-2,3,6, 7-tetrahydrospiro[furo[2,3-f]indole-3,4'-piperidine] (SB-224289). This compound is a potent antagonist of terminal 5-HT autoreceptor function both in vitro and in vivo.

7-[3-(1-piperidinyl)propoxy]chromenones as potential atypical antipsychotics. 2. Pharmacological profile of 7-[3-[4-(6-fluoro-1, 2-benzisoxazol-3-yl)-piperidin-1-yl]propoxy]-3-(hydroxymeth yl)chromen -4-one (abaperidone, FI-8602).

A series of novel 7-[3-(1-piperidinyl)propoxy]chromenones was synthesized and tested as potential antipsychotics in several in vitro and in vivo assays. The compounds possessed good affinity for D2 receptors, together with a greater affinity for 5-HT2 receptors, a profile which has been proposed as a model for atypical antipsychotics. Several agents also displayed a high potency in the climbing mice assay on oral administration, suggesting a potent antipsychotic effect as compared to reference standards. Compound 23 was selected for further pharmacological evaluation. Induction of catalepsy and inhibition of stereotypies weaker than standards, along with a lower increase in serum prolactin levels, were indicative of a potential atypical profile for this compound. From these results, 7-[3-[4-(6-fluoro-1, 2-benzisoxazol-3-yl)piperidin-1-yl]propoxy]-3-(hydroxymethyl )chromen- 4-one (23, abaperidone) has been proposed for clinical evaluation in humans as a potential atypical antipsychotic.

Structural basis of the thrombin selectivity of a ligand that contains the constrained arginine mimic (2S)-2-amino-(3S)-3-(1-carbamimidoyl- piperidin-3-yl)-propanoic acid at P1.

We have studied the thrombin and trypsin complexed structures of a pair of peptidomimetic thrombin inhibitors, containing different P1 fragments. The first has arginine as its P1 fragment, and the second contains the constrained arginine mimic (2S)-2-amino-(3S)-3-(1-carbamimidoyl-piperidin-3-yl)-propano ic acid (SAPA), a fragment known to enhance thrombin/trypsin selectivity of inhibitors. On the basis of an analysis of the nonbonded interactions present in the structures of the trypsin and thrombin complexes of the two inhibitors, the calculated accessible surfaces of the enzymes and inhibitors in the four complexes, data on known structures of trypsin complexes of inhibitors, and factor Xa inhibitory potency of these compounds, we conclude that the ability of this arginine mimic to increase thrombin selectivity of an inhibitor is mediated by its differential interaction with the residue at position 192 (chymotrypsinogen numbering). Thrombin has a glutamic acid at residue 192, and trypsin has a glutamine. The analysis also suggests that this constrained arginine mimic, when present in an inhibitor, might enhance selectivity against other trypsin-like enzymes that have a glutamine at residue position 192.

3-[3-(Piperidin-1-yl)propyl]indoles as highly selective h5-HT(1D) receptor agonists.

Several 5-HT(1D/1B) receptor agonists are now entering the marketplace as treatments for migraine. This paper describes the development of selective h5-HT(1D) receptor agonists as potential antimigraine agents which may produce fewer side effects. A series of 3-[3-(piperidin-1-yl)propyl]indoles has been synthesized which has led to the identification of 80 (L-772,405), a high-affinity h5-HT(1D) receptor full agonist having 170-fold selectivity for h5-HT(1D) receptors over h5-HT(1B) receptors. L-772,405 also shows very good selectivity over a range of other serotonin and nonserotonin receptors and has excellent bioavailability following subcutaneous administration in rats. It therefore constitutes a valuable tool to delineate the role of h5-HT(1D) receptors in migraine. Molecular modeling and physical properties have been utilized to postulate the binding conformation of these compounds in the receptor cavity.

New substituted 1-(2,3-dihydrobenzo[1, 4]dioxin-2-ylmethyl)piperidin-4-yl derivatives with alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist activity.

The emergence of a novel theory concerning the role of noradrenaline in the progression and the treatment of neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases has provided a new impetus toward the discovery of novel compounds acting at alpha(2)-adrenoceptors. A series of substituted 1-(2, 3-dihydrobenzo[1,4]dioxin-2-ylmethyl)piperidin-4-yl derivatives bearing an amide, urea, or imidazolidinone moiety was studied. Some members of this series of compounds proved to be potent alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonists with good selectivity versus alpha(1)-adrenergic and D(2)-dopamine receptors. Particular emphasis is given to compound 33g which displays potent alpha(2)-adrenoceptor binding affinity in vitro and central effects in vivo following oral administration.

Influence of anionic and cationic reverse micelles on nucleophilic aromatic substitution reaction between 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and piperidine

The nucleophilic aromatic substitution (S(N)Ar) reaction between 1-fluoro-2,4-dinitrobenzene and piperidine (PIP) were studied in two different reverse micellar interfaces: benzene/sodium 1,4-bis(2-ethylhexyl) sulfosuccinate (AOT)/water and benzene/benzyl-n-hexadecyl dimethylammonium chloride (BHDC)/water reverse micellar media. The kinetic profiles of the reactions were investigated as a function of variables such as surfactant and amine concentration and the amount of water dispersed in the reverse micelles, W0 = [H2O]/[surfactant]. In the AOT system at W0 = 0, no micellar effect was observed and the reaction takes place almost entirely in the benzene pseudophase, at every AOT and PIP concentration. At W0 = 10, a slight increment of the reaction rate was observed at low [PIP] with AOT concentration, probably due to the increase of micropolarity of the medium. However, at [PIP] > or = 0.07 M the reaction rates are always higher in pure benzene than in the micellar medium because the catalytic effect of the amine predominates in the organic solvent. In the BHDC system the reaction is faster in the micellar medium than in the pure solvent. Increasing the BHDC concentration accelerates the overall reaction, and the saturation of the micellar interface is never reached. In addition, the reaction is not base-catalyzed in this micellar medium. Thus, despite the partition of the reactants in both pseudophases the reactions effectively take place at the interface of the aggregates. The kinetic behavior can be quantitatively explained taking into account the distribution of the substrate and the nucleophile between the bulk solvent and the micelle interface. The results were used to evaluate the amine distribution constant between the micellar pseudophase and organic solvent and the second-order rate coefficient of S(N)Ar reaction in the interface. A mechanism to rationalize the kinetic results in both interfaces is proposed.

Efficient synthesis of piperidine derivatives. Development of metal triflate-catalyzed diastereoselective nucleophilic substitution reactions of 2-methoxy- and 2-acyloxypiperidines.

Nucleophilic substitution reactions of 2-methoxy- and 2-acyloxypiperidines were investigated. First, new and efficient methods for the preparation of the starting piperidine derivatives were developed. N-Benzyloxycarbonyl-2-methoxypiperidine (3) and 3-substituted-2-acyloxy-N-benzyloxycarbonylpiperidines (4a-d), which are recognized as the simplest imino-sugars, were prepared and were examined as substrates for nucleophilic substitution reactions with silyl enolates under the influence of catalytic amounts of metal triflates (Sc(OTf)3, Sn(OTf)2, Cu(OTf)2, Hf(OTf)4, etc). Among the triflates tested, Sc(OTf)3 gave the best results. It was found that 2-acetoxy-3-benzyloxy-N-benzyloxycarbonylpiperidine (4a) reacted with silyl enolates to afford the 2-alkylated adducts in high cis-selectivity, while 2,3-diacyloxy-N-benzyloxycarbonylpiperidines (4b-d) showed transselectivity. The stereochemical assignments were carefully performed using NMR analysis, X-ray crystallography, and synthetic transformations. Febrifugine (1), a potent antimalarial alkaloid, was successfully synthesized from 2,3-diacetoxy-N-benzyloxycarbonylpiperidine (4b) on the basis of these diastereoselective nucleophilic substitution reactions.

Diastereoselective hydroxylation of 6-substituted piperidin-2-ones. An efficient synthesis of (2S,5R)-5-hydroxylysine and related alpha-amino acids.

The synthesis of (2S,5R)-5-hydroxy-6-oxo-1,2-piperidinedicarboxylates (5) and related (3S,6R)-3-hydroxy-6-alkyl-2-oxo-1-piperidinecarboxylates has been developed. The approach is based on the asymmetric hydroxylation of enolates generated from the corresponding N-protected-6-substituted piperidin-2-ones. The utility of 5a as a precursor in the synthesis of (2S,5R)-5-hydroxylysine (1), an amino acid unique to collagen and collagen-like proteins, has also been demonstrated. (2S)-6-oxo-1,2-piperidinedicarboxylates (6) required for hydroxylation studies were prepared in 38-74% yield, starting from conveniently protected aspartic acid as inexpensive chiral adduct. Hydroxylation of 6 to 5 proceeds in high yield and excellent diastereoselectivity by treatment of their Li-enolate with (+)-camphorsulfonyloxaziridine at -78 degrees C. Ring opening of di-tert-butyl (2S,5R)-6-oxo-1,2-piperidinedicarboxylate ((5R)-5a) under reductive conditions afforded the corresponding 1,2-diol (17) in 91%, which was further transformed to (2S,5R)-5-hydroxylysine in four steps (84%). 17 is also a versatile intermediate in the preparation of tert-butyl (2S,5R)-2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]-5-hydroxy-6-iodohexanoate (3) and tert-butyl (2S)-2-[(tert-butoxycarbonyl)amino]-4-[(2R)-oxiranyl]butanoate (4), two amino acid derivatives used in the total synthesis of the bone collagen cross-link (+)-pyridinoline (2a).

Synthesis of 3-substituted 4-piperidinones via a one-pot tandem oxidation-cyclization-oxidation process: stereodivergent reduction to 3,4-disubstituted piperidines.

A novel approach to 3-substituted 4-piperidinones is described. The one-pot tandem oxidation-cyclization-oxidation of unsaturated alcohols 1a-e by PCC or PCC and trifluoromethanesulfonic acid affords piperidinones 2a-e in good yield. Reduction of 2a-e by L-Selectride gives the corresponding cis 3,4-disubstituted piperidines with diastereomeric ratios of >99:1. By contrast, reduction of 2a-e by Al-isopropoxydiisobutylalane gives the trans products with diastereomeric ratios of up to 99:1.

New piperidine scaffolds via nucleophilic reactivity of (-)-phenyloxazolopiperidine.

The present work illustrates the power of compound 2 as a chiral, nonracemic, and stable 2-piperideine (enamine) equivalent in the rapid and efficient construction of 3-substituted piperidines (carbon-carbon and carbon-sulfur bonds) such as 3-spiropiperidines. This methodology offers a new route to such systems that could compete with previously reported strategies.

N-sulfinyl metalloenamine conjugate additions: asymmetric synthesis of piperidines.

[reaction: see text] The first examples of conjugate additions of N-tert-butanesulfinyl metalloenamines are reported. Highly stereoselective conjugate additions (97:3 to 99:1 dr) were observed between metalloenamines derived from N-sulfinyl ketimines and alpha,beta-unsaturated ketones bearing either alkyl or aryl substituents. The conjugate addition products could rapidly be converted with high diastereoselectivity to 2,4,6-trisubstituted piperidines, which are difficult to access by other methods.

Imino Diels-Alder-Based Construction of a Piperidine A-Ring Unit for Total Synthesis of the Marine Hepatotoxin Cylindrospermopsin.

The synthesis of a piperidine A-ring precursor to the alkaloid cylindrospermopsin (1) is described. The initial approach to the A-ring precursor focused on the imino Diels-Alder reaction of diene 8 with ethyl (N-tosylimino)acetate (9) to form the cycloadduct 10 as a single stereoisomer. However, all attempts to convert ester 10 to a requisite diene such as 5 were unsuccessful. An alternative strategy involved the Diels-Alder cycloaddition of N-tosylimine 9 with oxygenated diene 19 under either thermal or Lewis acid-catalyzed conditions to produce a mixture of cis and trans enones 20 and 21. Although the undesired cis-enone 20 was the major product under all reaction conditions, it could be converted to the desired trans enone 21 by acid-catalyzed isomerization. Copper-mediated conjugate addition of vinylmagnesium bromide to cis-enone 20 followed by stereoselective ketone reduction with L-Selectride produced alcohol 23, whose structure was confirmed by X-ray crystallography. Similarly, trans-enone 21 was converted to alcohol 25 whose structure and stereochemistry were also established by X-ray analysis. Alcohol 25 was then protected as the silyl ether 26, which was hydroborated at the terminal olefin to produce primary alcohol ester 28having the stereochemistry and functionality needed for cylindrospermopsin.
